Whats Happening This Weekend: April 18 - 20

Breckenridge
If you're looking for great live music this weekend head over to Breckenridge. As part of the continued Spring Fever Festival Breckenridge will host the Yonder Mountain String Band and the Blues Traveler. The Yonder Mountain String Band will kick things off on Friday afternoon at 2pm at the base of Peak 8 and Blues Traveler will be performing on Saturday afternoon on the same stage at Peak 8.

Copper Mountain
Sunsation continues over at Copper Mountain this weekend and anyone making some spring turns will find plenty of activity in the village. Starting at 1pm take a brake from skiing and participate in the "Happiest 5k in the world" - the Color Run. After the 5k there will be live music from The Eighties Band at 1:30pm followed Funky Johnson starting at 3:30. Get some sleep on Saturday night because on Easter Sunday you'll find the largest Easter Egg Hunt in the world taking place! Between 10am and Noon children can search for 50,000 Easter Eggs hidden over 2,500 acres! Prizes include GoPro Cameras, Tubing Tickets, Ski Passes and More!

Keystone
Keystone's closing day for the 2013/14 Ski Season will be April 20th. The highlight of the weekend will be the Annual Slush Cup where skiers and riders will fly down the side of the mountain in outrageous costumes and launch off a kicker and try to skim across a pond of water. For those lucky souls that make it all the way across there are some great prizes including a 2014/15 season pass. To catch all the excitement get to the Mountain House Base area by 10:30am. 

They are calling for another 16" of snow tonight!

This Weekend In Summit County: April 11 - 13

Spring has sprung in Summit County! The weather is warm, the snow is melting, and the spring skiing conditions couldn't be better! If you find yourself in Summit County this weekend you'll have loads of fun things to do!

In Breckenridge the Spring Fever Festival continues with events all weekend long. On Friday night head over to the Breckenridge Theater on Ridge Street to view the Festival of Film. The show starts at 7pm and they'll be previewing two films: The Scenic Route - a short flick about following your passions, and Antarctica: A Year On Ice - thats right, a film about a year in Antarctica (that would make a Summit County winter seem short!).

On Saturday in Breckenridge local and regional athletes looking for some fun will compete in the Imperial Challenge. The pseudo triathlon sends competitors on a six mile bike ride from the Breckenridge Recreation Center through the Peak 7 Neighborhood to the base of Peak 8. From there they'll grab an extra layer, lace up their boots and begin skinning up the mountain. They will work their way up the T-Bar all the way to the top of the Imperial Ski lift. Then with whatever energy they have left in the tank they will take off their skis and hike to the very top of Peak 8 followed by a race all the way to the bottom where cold beer and good food awaits!

Over in Keystone you'll find a crowd on Saturday enjoying a free concert in River Run Village. DJ Logic kicks things off at 2:30 followed by the smooth beats of Arrested Development.

Hope to see you around the county this weekend!
